Let k:y=m_1x+b_1 and l:y=m_2x+b_2

l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}

We have

y=-\dfrac{4}{5}x+3\to m_1=-\dfrac{4}{5}

Therefore

m_2=-\dfrac{1}{-\frac{4}{5}}=\dfrac{5}{4}

We have the equation of a line:

y=\dfrac{5}{4}x+b

Put the coordinates of the point (4, 12) to the equation of the line:

12=\dfrac{5}{4}(4)+b

12=5+b        <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

7=b\to b=7

Answer: \boxed{y=\dfrac{5}{4}x+7}

Help please I have to get on the regular one soon
dybincka [34]

Answer:

1.   2x + 8y = 10xy

2.   13ab + 15ab = 28ab

Step-by-step explanation:

  This is because for question 2 the "a" and "b" stay together since it's on 13 and 15. So that is why you would get 28ab. For question 1 it's basicly the same but instead, you combine the two to get your answer.

Hope this helps.
